Why Elon Musk And DOGE Terrify Democrats
Derek Hunter

You may have noticed the absolute meltdown of the left over the existence of Elon Musk and the DOGE team doing exactly what Donald Trump was elected to do. I phrased it that way because that’s exactly what is happening – someone is finally going through the government’s books and records to figure out what people do, how much it costs, where the rest of the money is going and whether or not we can live without it since we’re more than $36 trillion in debt. Why would anyone meltdown over that? There’s a very simple reason: Democrats cannot afford for the American people realizing how much government they can live without. More than that, they can’t have the public recognize how much the government was actually getting in their way and impeding their success. The public doing either of those two things would be the end of the Democratic Party.

Not one single person in the Democratic Party, either elected or in journalism, has commented positively on anything the Department of Government Efficiency has uncovered and ended so far, nothing. No matter how wasteful, no matter how absurd, no matter how insane or stupid, Democrats are angry that DOGE exists, not that we taxpayers are being ripped off. That tells you something.

The most amazing part of all of it is how these people, who’ve spent decades milking taxpayers for their pet causes, for money to fund organizations that employ their children and fund their campaigns, that hire and pay them exorbitant amounts of money for no-show or symbolic jobs when they retire, that use insider information that make them more successful at stock trading than people who do it for a living, have the audacity to refer to what Musk and the crew are doing as somehow motivated by “greed.”

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

We have always been aware that government unnecessarily obstructs, and that it is wasteful.

However, the extent that others are lining their pockets at the public's expense is being exposed, and frankly, it is even worse than most of us thought.
Oddly enough, those most upset appear to have written themselves checks (directly or indirectly) from the public coffers, so it is no wonder they don't want to admit the problem exists (because to them, it is not a problem, it's a gravy train), nor do they want it corrected.They thought it safely hidden under the accumulated layers of bureaucracy so carefully crafted over decades, impossible to ferret out, and are in shock still over the speed with which those threads are being unraveled. That won't last, and we are seeing the first signs of those selfsame networks regrouping and counterattacking via the courts.

What they don't realize is that daily people are seeking out and finding information on just how much and how badly their money appears to have been pissed away, even while those same people are still struggling with the burdens of inflation and natural disaster.
Leftists have no monopoly on the ability to be enraged at the apparent injustices dealt by government or other entities, and the right is beginning to see, not through a glass darkly, but face to face the damage the Left has done.

No quarter. Ferret them out, prosecute, and strip them of their ill gotten gains.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
